The M5 received overwhelmingly positive reviews - it seems to be a genuinely nice car. I think the issues with it are more generic issues with this class or type of car: hard to justify spending so much money on a car; a lot of complexity which is likely to result in headaches and expenses in the future; gas guzzling; high-performance capabilities which are largely wasted on public roads. People in the market for this car obviously aren't bothered much by these types of practical issues, and the M5 satisfies the things that they do care about.
